8/365...sleepy zazen.

Have been greatly increasing my exercise lately, which has disrupted my zazen schedule. Trying to get things settled. Usually a night sitter but will probably have to switch to morning on some days.

Lurker check-in time. 15/365
Since I joined about two weeks ago I've sat daily. My surprise is that no matter how early I get up my three year old wants to come in round the 10 minute mark. :? Monkey mind is becoming more of a daily passenger than the driver and my sits are getting longer. :)
Any tips for doing zazen when traveling? I have a 2 week trip coming up and think I'm going to have to pay the bag fees so my zafu come with.

I lost count a long time ago!
I wouldn't worry about bringing my zafu unless I knew I would be getting ample alone-time for formal practice. Since I usually travel with family or friends, I try to get some practice in when I find a moment alone. I'll do this sitting upright on the edge of a chair.Quote:

I'm trying to follow that old rule that it takes 3-4 weeks of consistently doing something for it to become a habit.Quote:

May all beings be happy! 23/365
May all beings be free from pain and sorrow! 24/365
It's the Universe. It's reality. I just sit, even when not sitting.
You guys inspire me.
Thank you.
Happy Fathers' Day! 25/365gassho1
Happy Monday! 26/365
53, I think. Got a little sloppy in my practice last week.
But here we are! :TL:

28/365...I think I missed a post somehow.
One cannot possibly miss a post even though we might miss a post. Thus, you should diligently and sincerely seek to post in this thread each day, never missing a single post.
One cannot possibly miss a sit even though we might miss a sit. Thus, you should diligently and sincerely seek to sit each day, never missing a single sit.
Thus, we are challenged to keep sitting and make the sitting real in life, even as there is no "we" to challenge and the sitting is ever already sat!
Such is the "My Zazen Challenge" Koan:)

29/365...
Rev. Jundo,
Great koan, now can someone tell me what it means...:) Just kidding. Anyway, during today's sleeping sit the story of the man who preferred fake dragons to real one keep repeating itself in my head. Sometimes I wonder if I'm romanticizing zazen...Metta to all!
Gassho,
Mike
Been a rough few weeks

I guess this zazen challenge is as good as any. Count me in. So far I'm 0/365.
I think I'm at something like 56/8/365.
Or maybe it's 1/1/10,000.
Fuzzy math.

1/365 It was much needed. For some reason I woke up stressed out and angry...
30/365...good night everyone!
31/365...Good morning everyone!
32/365...no coffee zazen.
